[Red House] How to escape from a broken ship

Jingchu 23 years

In the early days of Jingchu, Emperor Situ Kuo decided to tour the south to worship Confucius, and took this opportunity to let the crown prince Situ Xun supervise the country. He thought that he ascended the throne without the opportunity to supervise the country. Take this lesson.But at this moment, Situ Kuo was thinking about having a few more drinks with his lovers later. The vast territory of Great Wu and its increasing national power are all the result of his hard work.

Not only national power, but also population.Starting from Situ Kuo's branch, the royal family was gradually withering, but Emperor Jingchu increased the number of Jinzhi clan by himself.Although he didn't have a hundred sons like King Wen of Zhou, it was still better than the scattered clan.

This was the banquet before the emperor's southern tour. All the relatives of the clan and important officials of the court were invited to attend. When the banquet was about to start, the middle-aged chief eunuch Gao Ting whispered to the emperor: Jing Anbo and his wife can't come.

Bo Jiayan and his wife Lin Younian could not attend?

Situ Kuo wondered: "Did something happen to Boheng? He asked his wife to write congratulatory forms and poems for me before. They are doing well. Could it be that Ah Yi is about to give birth?"

Situ Yi, the eldest daughter of the emperor and the younger sister of the prince, married Lin Shi, the youngest son of Jia Yan and his wife.Counting the time, it was time for the pregnant princess to give birth. The emperor suddenly got up: I'm going to see it!

Gao Ting couldn't stop him no matter what, so he had to send someone to invite the crown prince over.When Situ Xun entered the inner hall, he saw his father bewildered and said that he wanted to see if his daughter was safe!

Situ Xun didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Father, don't you know Mr. Jing'an and Mr. Lin? They always cherish the younger generation, and they care more about the younger sister." Before he finished speaking, the emperor gave him a stare, and the prince choked. , and quickly changed his words: "If you are worried, I will take someone to see it in person, do you think so?"

The emperor waved impatiently, hurry up!Be sure to keep your sister safe and sound.

The prince took the order and left, and the emperor sat alone in the inner room, suddenly lost the mood to go out to host the banquet.

His eldest daughter, Situ Yi, was raised by the emperor and the queen mother since her mother died young. However, when she was still young, the emperor and the queen mother passed away one after another.The emperor looked at the delicate little daughter, and took her back to his Zichen Palace with a heartfelt heart, and brought her up with her elder brother, Prince Situ Xun.

The siblings separated when Situ Xun reached the age when he had to move to the East Palace. After that, only Situ Yi stayed by his father's side.If the emperor is most concerned and looking forward to the crown prince Situ Xun, then the emperor loves his eldest daughter the most. It is no exaggeration to say that he loves more than treasures.

When the princess became an adult, the emperor chose thousands of children from famous families in Beijing, and chose himself to choose his parents. Finally, he decided to hand over his daughter to Lin Shilin Regular.At that time, Lin Zhengze's elder brother Jia Fei entered the officialdom directly with his official title because of his father's title of knighthood. Now he is serving as an official in the East Palace just like his father did back then.

As for Lin Zhengze himself, at that time, he was the first choice for the son-in-law of many families in central Beijing, and he was a hot item.

Although Jia Yan was made an earl at that time because of his meritorious service in following the emperor's Northern Expedition, Jia Fei was the heir to the earl, but Lin himself had already been admitted to Jinshi, not to mention the seventh-rank title bestowed by the emperor.At that time, Lin Shi was not yet a weak crown, and the emperor was overjoyed to praise him as one of the three Jinshi scholars, and even wrote an inscription for the country's honorary officials: Ke Shao Jiqiu.

And the most important reason that makes him the number one hit... is because Lin is too talented in writing, and he is also too good-looking.

This child is not like his father. His literary talents can be compared with his father's. After Jia Yan discovered that his son was born with a good memory and excellent literary talents, he never taught him his homework directly. He was worried that he would teach the child badly. up.He was enlightened by his mother since he was a child, and studied with his mother. When he grew up, he went to Chongwen Museum, known as the number one in poetry and prose.

Later, the older he grew, the more he looked like his mother, Lin Daiyu. Although he was as tall and straight as his father, and his face was tougher than that of a boy, he was still called the fairy man in the painting.Every time Situ Xun sees Jia Fei and Lin Shi appearing together, he always laughs. Jia Fei is good-looking, masculine handsome, but when he stands with his brother Lin Shi, he is inferior in comparison.

Jia Fei himself admitted: I stand with Xiaoer, and everyone can only see my younger brother. If the people in this dynasty were more open, our family would not need to buy fruit.

At that time, Jia Yan and Daiyu were also having headaches, and his second child really became a family with a hundred families, and old friends from Liang, Sun, Xu, Chu, etc. all came to ask.Even Tan Zhengqi, who has been guarding the border for many years and holds the title of minister of the Ministry of War, wrote to him, "Xiyan asked the second son Zhengze whether the marriage is settled" and so on.

When Jia Fei got married, he made a fuss once. Several families were staring at this son-in-law. In the end, Jia Yan was responsible for attracting firepower at the front, and Daiyu was responsible for prying his son's mouth open. Combining his own opinions and those of his parents, he decided to marry the Hanlin scholar at that time. Sun Jian, the daughter of Sun Zhao.And the daughter of Xu Zhi, a cabinet scholar, married back to her uncle's family, and married Princess Changle's eldest grandson, Liang Zhao. After going around, several families became in-laws.

But this time, Lin Shi was even worse than before, not to mention that this kid was more cunning than his elder brother. When the Shu Jishi left the hall and his parents wanted to talk about marriage with him, Lin Shi immediately said: "Second cousin's son is also in this subject. I have been admitted to Jinshi, father and mother, do you know?"

Daiyu froze for a moment, then said to Jia Yan, "Yes, Jia Fang, the son of my second cousin Baoyu?"

Lin Shi hurriedly said from the side: "My mother has a good memory. It's him. He was admitted to the 24th place in the second class. He is very good. He came to Beijing and went to the third cousin. I didn't recognize him at first. Cousin Shi Lei told me mine."

The appearance of this name made the husband and wife recall the past together. Lin Shi hurriedly took the opportunity to resign and slip away.

Jia Yan sighed: "It's been so many years, and even Baoyu's son has been admitted to Jinshi. Come to think of it, we haven't seen that child before, have we?"

Daiyu nodded silently, she had never seen that child, she had only heard of it.

Uncle Jia She and cousin Jia Lian were witnesses in the case of Ping'an Prefecture, and they were finally meritorious, and the emperor didn't need to kill them all: only the title of Rongguo Mansion was deposed, and Jia Zheng was also ordered to resign in the name of "faintness". In the name of "serving the old", the old lady's order was preserved.

Once the old lady was there, they could still gain a foothold in the capital, but Shi Taijun didn't last long after all, and passed away the next year after that.At that time, Jia Fang was just born, so naturally she couldn't see anyone, and after that, Baoyu lost the psychic Baoyu, and then disappeared suddenly.On the Lin family's side, Lin Hai and Jia Min were getting old and sick one after another.

First, Jia Min died of illness, and Lin Hai couldn't bear the pain of losing his wife in old age, so he couldn't afford it, and passed away immediately.At that time, Daiyu caught up with her third pregnancy. She was tired and grieved for her parents, and her body and mood were not good.Jia Yan has to take care of the funerals of the elderly, has a second son who needs to be taken care of when he is young, and has his wife next to him to worry about.

It happened that the house was leaking and it was raining all night. King Zhongshun ordered someone to impeach Jia Yan, saying that he had used public affairs for personal gain in the case of Ping'an Prefecture, and colluded with Tan Zhengqi, the current guard of Ping'an Gate. Giving gifts, he takes bribes.

At that time in the court, the emperor hadn't expressed his position yet. Jia Yan was tired and angry, and angrily said that his uncle and aunt raised him and married his beloved daughter to him. Now that the two elders have passed away, he should do his best.He wants to honor the elders, he wants Ding You!

If Situ Yanai instigates others, he instigates them, and if he has the ability, he will be charged with "unnecessary" crimes and sent to prison for himself, so that he can die!

He went home emotionally, and began to observe his mourning the next day, and within a few days he really fell ill.Seeing him like this, Daiyu rushed out of her grief instead, and she became the pillar of the family.She began to ask what happened, wrote memorials to the emperor to defend herself during Jia Yan's illness, and wrote letters to relatives and friends to explain the whole story until Jia Yan was able to get up from the hospital bed.

It can be said that she single-handedly supported the panic-stricken and precarious family at that time. In the hearts of Jia Fei and Lin Shi, the mother was a hero.Not to mention that the hero was still pregnant at the time, and finally gave birth to a little daughter, their little sister Jia Nuan.

When choosing a wife at the beginning, the two elder brothers had a principle in mind, to choose a wife who could play and get along well with the younger sister.Because their sister is the best girl in the world.Therefore, Sun Jian and Jia Nuan are close friends in the boudoir, while the eldest princess Situ Yi and Jia Nuan are classmate friends...

After the princess grew up, the emperor began to worry about her studies. The emperor's daughter also wanted to study.After choosing and choosing, it happened that Jia Yan and his wife were filial piety. The emperor remembered the old story of Mrs. Lin teaching the eldest son of the emperor.Therefore, Xiao Jia Nuan went to the palace to attend classes with her mother, and became good friends with the princess after going back and forth.

It was because Situ Yi went out of the palace under the banner of visiting friends, but secretly went out to play with Jia Nuan, and only then met "Lin Xianlang" who came to take them back.The pair of children got to know each other like this, and Lin Shi had a good impression of the princess: she was quite pleasing to the eye.

Mr. Xiaolin likes all beautiful things. He looks good himself, and his family members are all above average. It is impossible for him to like ugly girls without salt.Being able to be said "pleasing to the eye" by him shows that the princess is top-notch in terms of appearance and behavior.

And the princess and Jia Nuan got closer and closer, which was also acquiesced by Emperor Jingchu. Since the palace examination was over, he made up his mind: Lin is this child, and I want to keep it for my daughter!

When Jia Fang was mentioned that day, Daiyu and his wife thought of the big family in Rongguo Mansion who had been silent since they returned to Jinling.Because the Lin family and Jia Min passed away one after another, Jia Yan was first impeached, and then kept his filial piety behind closed doors, and gradually lost contact with Jinling.Now that he knew that the child had come to the capital, as an elder, he had to express something. This task fell on Lin Shi and asked him to invite his cousin to the house.

Jia Fang looks very much like Baoyu, and he is also a handsome and tall man, but there is a bit of sadness in his face, not like the elegant demeanor of the young master of the Duke's Mansion.This was Daiyu's first impression of this child. Jia Fang visited her aunt and uncle, and mentioned that her mother, Mrs. Xue, had mentioned to him that there were relatives in Beijing, but they hadn't seen each other for many years. disturb.

He was a pretty good kid. Jia Yan later talked with Xu Zhi, who was the prefect of Jinling, about the Jia family who returned to Jinling. Xu Zhi told him that Jia Fang was a good character, but he didn't suffer too much.A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. In the years before and after the Pingan case, there were many unlucky families, and no one always cared about the Jia family.

Only this kid's cousin, Jia Lan, is a wonderful flower. This kid first studied, passed the Juren exam, but failed an imperial examination and went to the Northwest Camp to join the army.Jia Yan knew about this. In the year he sent troops with the emperor, he heard that a man named Jia Lan had made meritorious service, but Jia Lan was in the frontier army and he did not see him.

Xu Zhi laughed and said: "This little Jia Guerrilla is very powerful. He separated immediately after he was born. He doesn't remember that his grandfather and aunt gave him a lot of help because his widowed mother didn't have to give birth.This kid didn't care about his little cousin at all, he just cared about living a comfortable life for himself.At that time, arguing about family separation was not very pleasant. He may have thought of going to the border by himself, and he didn't care about the outside world's words. He almost ran his cousin and aunt to death.

Jia Yan didn't remember Jia Lan anymore, and when he heard about it, he just felt that this person's future was limited. In addition, Jia Fang and her mother, orphans and widows, caught up with the decline of Rongfu, and it was not easy.Jia Fang stayed at the home of her aunt Tanchun in Beijing. The former Duke Shanguo's mansion has now become the Marquis of Dingxiang's mansion. After Jia Fang was selected as a good scholar, apart from Jia Fei and Lin Shi brothers who had seen it, there were others. His relatives also let him admit it.

Dingxianghou's son Shi Lei and his younger brother Shi Dang from the aunt's family, cousin Guo Yang and cousin Guo He from the second aunt's family, Lu Xiu from the Xiaotang aunt's family, and so on.Speaking of which, the husband of Xiaotang Gu Xichun is Lu Man, the younger brother of Lu Boyin, who is in the same class as Jia Fang's cousin Jia Yan, and the younger brother of Lu Boyin, who is second in the list.

As for Jia Fang's marriage, she was ordered by her mother long before she went to Beijing. If the master is willing to make decisions for him, he will follow the master's orders.Xue Baochai knew that with her current social circle, she would not be able to choose a good wife for her son. If her relatives in Beijing were willing to help, or if the teacher valued Jia Fang and acted as a matchmaker for Jia Fang, her son would still have a bright future.

In the end, because of the relatives, Jia Fang was matched by Lu Boyin, the examiner, and married Liang Si, the granddaughter of Princess Changle and the second daughter of Liang Shi.Liang Yan, the eldest daughter of Liang Shi, has married Shi Lei, the eldest son of Marquis Dingxiang. When Jia Yan heard about this marriage, he couldn't help but think of the scene of the Song Dynasty's father-in-law and son-in-law prime ministers, and several families were in-laws having a big party.

After Jia Fang got married, Lin Shi was bestowed a marriage by the emperor, and Xiao Lin Hanlin was selected as the son-in-law of Qinghe Princess Situ Yi.

At that time, Daiyu was still worried that her son would be unhappy, but she didn't expect that her son was not worried about his official career at all, but happily expressed that he could concentrate on studying in the future.Lin Shi always felt that his elder brother Jia Fei couldn't support his family alone, but he wasn't very interested in thinking about his official career, he just wanted to let nature take its course, and now that he really became a son-in-law, everyone got what he wanted.

Back to the present, the reason why Situ Kuo was so worried was because his daughter had only conceived after two years of marriage with Lin Zhengze. Emperor Jingchu had always been worried that his daughter and son-in-law would have no children.Lin is the only one in the Lin family. If there is no child, although "the Lin family's descendants are weak" can be used perfunctorily, no one will make irresponsible remarks, but the princess herself will not be happy.

But now that he has a child, the emperor has to worry about whether he will be born safely. He circled back and forth, while Gao Ting persuaded him: "Your Majesty, the prince has already passed away. Don't worry, the prince will take good care of the princess." .”

After Situ Xun heard about it, he rode his horse to the Princess' Mansion. If he thought well, everyone should be there now.

Jia Yan and Daiyu have always allowed time to enter the palace without haste, but this time when they were about to leave, their son Lin Shi sent someone to report: The princess is about to be born!

Daiyu originally wanted Jia Yan to enter the palace by herself, so she stayed to take a look, lest Lin was the only one there and couldn't go to the delivery room.But Jia Yan didn't want to enter the palace by himself, and he was a little worried. This was Lin Shi's first child.Jia Fei has two sons, and Lin is Yu Kong, their parents are actually very worried.

"Mr. Lin!" Situ Xun came striding forward. He was used to going to these two mansions frequently, and his disciples were used to the Crown Prince coming to the Princess Mansion.

Daiyu was startled and said, "Why did the prince come here alone!"

"No," Situ Xun said with a smile, "Ah Yi gave birth, I'm afraid that those people will come in and make noise for her, and they are all outside. Sir, I have asked the imperial physician to follow. Where is Zheng Ze?"

"He was taken to the study by his father." Daiyu looked at the young man Jiujiu: "You go there too, you can't enter the delivery room if you stay here, I will call the imperial doctor over in a while, and let someone tell you if there is any letter. stop."

Situ Xun still went to the window and said loudly: "Sister, brother is here, don't worry, giving birth safely is more important than anything else, you know?"

The nanny inside came out to meet the prince, saying that the princess reassured the elder brother.Situ Xun left his personal eunuch to guard the door, and if there was anything wrong, quickly bring the imperial physician in and report to him.After the arrangements were made, Situ Xun bid farewell to Daiyu. Situ Xun went to Lin Shi's study. Daiyu looked at his back and turned to enter the delivery room. The children had grown up.

"Mother," Situ Yi said, holding the hand of his mother-in-law, "I will definitely be able to give birth to a child." It was also the first time for the princess to give birth, and now she was about to cry.

Daiyu quickly wiped away her tears: "Good boy, don't cry, the baby must be born well, and it must be born safely. It's fine for you, and it's fine for the baby, don't be afraid."

She has been sitting here with her daughter-in-law. When Sun Jian gave birth, she was accompanied by her own mother, Lu Wei.But the princess' mother passed away a long time ago, and Daiyu has always loved her dearly, and she is not at ease if she is not allowed to accompany her.

In the study, there are not only father and son Jia Yan and Lin Shi, but also Jia Fei and Jia Nuan. After hearing the news that the crown prince has arrived, Jia Nuan hides behind the screen.The daughter of the Jing'an uncle's mansion is now ready to marry, but Jia Yan and Daiyu have tossed and turned, but they can't find a son-in-law that suits them.Although Jia Boheng's attitude has always been, don't force yourself if you can't make it, you can get together and leave.

But if the children's marriage is going well, who would want the children to be fine and get divorced.This is the youngest daughter of their husband and wife. From the bottom of my heart, Jia Yan also wants to keep her daughter for a while, besides, although this child is sensible, she still acts like a child in matters of men and women.There was no feeling of shyness or avoidance at all, and Miss Jia Nuan didn't even think about getting married.

Jia Nuan thought clearly about what kind of marriage and who to marry, how comfortable it would be to be the daughter of parents and the younger sister of brothers.She and her sisters-in-law also get along well, and the three of them often study together. Although the sister-in-law has to learn how to be a housekeeper, their family's accounts are clear, and there are old rules for most things, so they don't take up a lot of time.

Miss Jia knew very well that other than their family, daughter-in-laws of other families might not be able to do it so easily.

Several men have been waiting for news in the study, and Situ Xun is afraid that someone will report that the princess's birth is not going well... But now, he doesn't say whether the birth is going well, or whether the princess is born or not, just wait like this It's really frustrating.

Jia Nuan had already sneaked out from behind the screen, trying to sneak into the delivery room by virtue of her gender advantage, but was scared away by the tragic cry of the second sister-in-law at the door.With a pale face, he didn't go back to the study, and went to his sister-in-law Sun Jian instead.

Sun Jian was checking the homework of his two sons when a voice came from outside: The big girl is here!

"Isn't the princess about to give birth?" Sun Jian hurriedly brought him into the house: "I want to go, mother said to let me take care of the two children, as long as she is here. Ah Nuan, what's wrong with you? Why do you look like this?" It's ugly, isn't it!" Sun Jian's expression froze, and Jia Nuan came back to his senses.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I'm fine." Jia Nuan took a long breath and said after a while, "Sister-in-law, was it the same when you gave birth to Brother Shu?"

Sun Jian looked at this little girl suspiciously, what kind of girl is she?Jia Nuan made a heart-piercing expression, and Sun Jian burst into laughter: "We are women, as long as there is a child to give birth, it is destined to go through this once. Don't worry, it doesn't matter if you shout loudly, as long as the fetal position is correct. , the child will be born safely."

Alas, Jia Nuan remembered what he had heard before, that a family's daughter-in-law had a difficult labor when she gave birth, and she was really depressed.In order to let her take it easy, Sun Jian simply showed her the word "ink pig" written by her two sons. The two sisters-in-law commented on the children's calligraphy, which diverted Jia Nuan's attention.

In fact, it has only been more than an hour since the labor pains started. Everyone was too worried, so they felt that the time had passed extremely long.

It is estimated that when the banquet was held in the palace, news came from the princess' mansion that the mother and child were safe.The men and women in the study and the main room all breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately cheered up.Situ Yi was too tired and had already fallen asleep in the delivery room. Daiyu ordered someone to clean up the place, and took her little grandson out to show the men.

Situ Xun was also relieved. Several men gathered together to see their newly born son/grandson/nephew/nephew. Situ Xun was polite and was the first to hold the newborn child.The child opened his eyes when he was born, looking left and right as if he could really see something. The fetal hair was more than an inch long. Although Situ Xun had already become a father, his sister's son was unusual, and he was very happy.

But he didn't forget the child's own father, Situ Xun handed over his nephew to Lin Shi, watching Lin Zhengze frantically holding his eldest son.Lin Xianlang's happy lips trembled, and he said to his father and brother tremblingly: "Father, elder brother, look at how good this child is, my son!"

Situ Xundao: "I'm very happy, but it's too late. Lord Boheng and Mr. Lin don't want to work. I'll just go back and announce the good news to my father. What do you think, my lord?"

"That's very good, Prince Yi." Jia Yan had no objection, it didn't matter if he didn't attend such a big banquet, and the emperor would not pursue it.

Only then did Situ Xun leave the uncle's mansion and rode back to the palace, but he met a train at the gate of the palace.The carriages and horses looked bleak, and the servants looked listless. When Situ Xun came over, everyone knelt down to greet him.He rode into the palace gate, and when he dismounted, he asked casually: "Which family is that outside?"If the important officials of the father and emperor, stay far away and come late, don't be too harsh, let them come in.

The gate guard whispered: "Your Highness, that is the convoy of Zhongshun Wang's family."

As soon as Situ Xun's face changed, he immediately changed his words: "Then let them wait outside!" The prince sneered: Don't let them go, just tell them to ask and drag them away!

The guards naturally listened to the prince. They dared to stop people and knew that the emperor and the prince didn't want to see this family. Back then, King Zhongshun ordered people to impeach Jing'an Bo and his envoy Jia Yintai.His Majesty was caught off guard and had to let Jia Yintai stay at home to wait for the investigation, and later cleared Jia Yintai of the charges. Although the whole court knew that King Zhongshun had falsely accused him, he was a clan after all. I want to make a big prison.

But since then, Zhongshun has become more and more favored. Although he has not been deposed, everyone knows that the prince's title will definitely not be passed on to the next generation, and he may not even be as good as King Han in the future.

And the crown prince had been educated by Mrs. Jing'an when he was young, and Jing'an was also the teacher of the eldest princess. King Zhongshun really offended two generations of emperors, and there is no day to turn around.

During the banquet, the emperor watched his eldest son walk in, hurriedly asked him to come, the emperor asked in a low voice: "Your sister?"

"Mother and child are safe!" The prince smiled and said, "I'm still waiting for you to name the little grandson!"

Hahaha, everyone at the banquet suddenly laughed out loud when they saw the emperor, and looked at each other strangely.The emperor laughed so hard that tears were about to flow out, and then he said loudly: "My eldest daughter, Princess Qinghe gave birth to Lin'er. This is a great joy for me and the prince!"

After everyone came forward to congratulate him, the emperor said to the crown prince sitting next to him, "Ah Xun, how long has Jia Boheng been in the Department of General Affairs?"

"...My son remembers that it was almost 20 years ago." Situ Xun recalled: "Master Boheng was Ding You, and then you sent him to the Imperial College, and then returned to the Secretary of General Affairs."

Emperor Jingchu nodded slowly: "Yes, tomorrow, I plan to let him leave the General Secretary. The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment will become an official, and I want him to be the right servant of the Ministry of Punishment first, and be in charge of the Ministry of Punishment. This time you supervise the country, just let him stay in Beijing. assist you."

Situ Xun restrained his joy, bowed his head and said respectfully: "Father Huang arranged very well, and my son thanked Father Huang for his great kindness!"

Emperor Jingchu nodded slowly, thinking about summoning Jia Yan tomorrow to tell him about this matter, the most important thing is to think of a name for his little grandson.

Fireworks started to be set off outside the hall. Outside the imperial city, Jia Yan and Daiyu stood side by side in the courtyard of Jing'an Bo Mansion, admiring the fireworks.The eldest son's family had dinner happily, the second son was immersed in the joy of welcoming a new life, and the youngest daughter was sorting out her mother's manuscripts in the study.

The fireworks that explode at the highest point bear witness to this happiness.
